A MANAGES TERRIBLE FURY.

Tearing Away His Own Flesh I'm An
Effort To Devour Himself.
KEoKUK, Ia, Nov. 27.-Harris Fuchs, a
Russian prisoner in Jail here, arrested for
having attempted an assault upon bridge
gate-keeper, to whom he refused to pay toll,
became violently insane in his cell last
night. He rayed and shouted imprecations
upon the heads of his supposed prosecutors,
and threatened the most horrible vengeance
upon those who had caused his arrest. The
officers at first paid but little attention to
him, but it was finally thought best to res
strain him. When the officers went to the
cell horrible sight met their gaze. The
man was attempting to devour himself. He
was biting vigorously and vicious!y at his
arms and hands, and with every snap of his
sharp teeth tearing away the flesh. None of
those present desired to go within reach of
the maniac. Ropes we're obtained, and with
considerable difficulty the fellow was lassoed
and then securely bound and placed in po-
sition to be unable to infict further injury
upon himself. Fuchs continued violent even
after he was bound. and it was necessary for
the physicians to place him under the infu-
enee of opiates before they could quiet him
sufficiently to give his wounds the necessary
attention.

QUEBEC, Nov. 27.-During disturbance

the Salvation army four French members of
that body, three men and woman, were
followed by hooting mob and would doubt
less have been assaulted but for the pres
ence of a strong force of police. A large

progress, but were driven off by the police
During the attack, Walter Ray a leading
business man, was knocked insensible by one
of the rowdies. The excitement was intense
and to prevent riot the authorities advised
the members of the army to abandon their
parade and leave the building without at
traeting attention. This they did and the
mob then dispersed with threats of violence
in the near future.

called to the new machine placed up
on the market by the Davis Sewing

The vertical feed is the principal

which separates it from. and places it

makes. II is necessary TO see this new

and appreciate its many advantages.
